Meet Omar Tsereteli. He is paid to keep watch at  Georgia’s National Library. When he gets bored, he does this.

A passing tourist heard him and started filming. Anyone name the piece? (Einaudi?)

In four days, Tsereteli has gained more viewers than Lang Lang’s latest.

‘Today I signed a record agreement for the next productions with the label DECCA. It begins with a recital that will be ready in summer!!!’ announces Carlo Colombara on his Facebook page.

The label has yet to confirm.

Eleonora Belyaeva, presenter of The Music Box for more than 30 years on Soviet television, as died at 80.

An Honoured Artist of the RSFSR, she lost her voice at music college and rose through the system to find fame – and some popularity – as a presenter of new recordings on the small screen.

Yekwon Sunwoo, 26, won the Internationalen Deutschen Pianistenpreis at the Alte Oper, Frankfurt. He collected the 20,000 Euro award. The audience prize went to a Latvian, Andrei Osokin.

A Juilliard graduate, Sunwoo won first prize at the 2012 William Kapell International Piano Competition but missed out at Van Cliburn. He told local press that it is his lifelong dream to live in Germany.

He has an elaborate preparation ritual.

This may be a new kind of meet-and-greet service, we’re not sure.

Alexander Pereira, the Scala boss, announced at the reopening of the renovated airport that he is planning a performance there in September. Live on TV. He won’t say which opera, or parts of opera. (UPDATE: Austrian newspapers predict L’Elisir d’amore).

Perhaps we can offer some suggestions? The Magic Flight? Fidelayo? Orfeo ed Queueridico?

And could we translate Malpensa as ‘bad idea’?
